From a Terrorist Forum: Al Qaeda Strategy in Iraq Is Destroyed, What Can We Do? (We= Terrorists)
August 28 2007 | jveritas

Posted on 08/28/2007 7:26:03 AM PDT by jveritas

Below is a translated thread posted for discussion on a terrorist forum 3 days ago where an Al Qaeda sympathizer said that the "Islamic State in Iraq" which is led by Al Qaeda has been defeated in the provinces of Anbar and Diyala, and that they were only left with one last bastion which is the city and province of Mosul. He said that Al Qaeda old strategy was defeated and that they are now on the run, and that they must come up with a new strategy.

Beginning of the translation:

In the name of allah the most compassionate the most merciful

My Brothers I will leave this subject in your hand for constructive discussions and here it is:

Where is the Islamic State in Iraq heading after they left Anbar, after they left Diyala, after many Iraqis gathered around what is called the Alliance of the Tribes, and after the formation of the secret police. They (***Al Qaeda terrorists) left these areas and they are heading toward Mosul which is their last bastion. I swear to allah that they are our brothers (***Al Qaeda terrorists) and they are pieces of our own hearts but I plead with them to put a new strategy because their old strategy was destroyed and it had so many mistakes. Are they now in a state of Fleeing after they were in a state of offense? In this case it is not good news and allah help us.

Oh allah bring victory to the moujahedeen and I say this form a truthful heart and good intention that only allah knows. I will leave this subject between your hands to deliver it to the leaders of Al Qaeda and the Islamic State so they can prevent what they can prevent and allah help us. I want a solution, I do not want rhetoric, I do not want a fight between the members; we must come up with something.

End of the translation

Sorry you had to type all that in your #179. But you were obviously prepared to offer good arguments for your position.

It didn’t negate everything. I did ask, and still ask, do you believe killing OBL will end the war? And if so, would your strategy, if you were calling the shots, be to kill OBL and then go home?

I think I’ve made it clear that I don’t believe OBL is the entire war. But it isn’t really a war if the instigator escapes us either. And OBL and the entire top AQ leadership must be killed and their base of support and those who harbor them must be exposed and/or destroyed.

I must have missed it, but it was never clear to me. But I'll take you at your word now. But it isn’t really a war if the instigator escapes us either. And OBL and the entire top AQ leadership must be killed and their base of support and those who harbor them must be exposed and/or destroyed.

I agree completely, but limiting it to just AQ would be a mistake. Hezbollah, Hamas, Taliban, and any and all other Islamist terror groups or militias must be dealt with the same way.

And then there's Iran.
